Prompt objective

Real use case
Nubank needs to select 5 backend developers (Python/Go) and wants to replace the HackerRank algorithm test with a more realistic case. The current process has a 40% dropout rate on the technical test, and 60% of those who pass don't perform well in the first 90 days.
